Synopsis: The Rookie (2002)

Synopis: THE ROOKIE tells the extraordinary real-life story of Jim Morris (Dennis Quaid), who had to drop out of minor league baseball because of an injury to his pitching arm. Twelve years later, inspired by the young men on the championship-winning high school team he coaches, Morris is convinced to fulfill his own dream and try out for a professional team. With perseverance and confidence, he finally steps up to the plate, and after his pitching is clocked in the high nineties, he is signed to a minor league contract with the Tampa Bay Devil Rays, and soon after, moving onto his lifelong dream - the major leagues.

1. Fun for All!

   Overall:

   I watched this movie for the first time on a 6 hour plane ride, and can say not too many movies in flight can be still called great movies!. I treated my entire family to this movie the next time, and not too many 8 and 6 year olds will sit glued to a 2 hour film. We even watch the special feature with Jim Morris narrating the true story! (which the film accurately portrays.) My daughter summed it up best when she said.. "I felt like baseball was a game for everyone, after seeing this movie".
   An inspiration to all of us. Thank you Jim Morris for your grit and determination, and thank you Disney for producing a movie that takes you back to your roots. Please make more like this and see your star shine again! ...
